• DARE TO WEAR

  ECA & The Cannery are resurrecting Esperance’s wearable art event: !!DARE TO WEAR 2010!!

  An information session will be held at the Cannery Arts Centre’s meeting room Mon 2nd August 5pm.

  Anyone who wants to participate in this year’s event must attend to collect the application form and guidelines.

• Captive Wives – Theatre Production

  Captive Wives explores the lives, challenges and triumphs of a group of women living on Esperance farms in the early 1970s.

  The resulting play is a dramatic, humorous and insightful look at this remarkable group of women dealing with the issues of being new-land farmers – isolation, financial pressures, poor seasons… and snakes!

  Captive Wives will be at the Bijou Theatre for a two-week season which runs from August 20-28. Tickets can be obtained from the Esperance Civic Centre or online at thebijoutheatre.org.au.
